Hah, happy to oblige. Was an interesting topic, has given me a few different ideas

Hi Capitulize! A bunch of questden authors have been doing a card duel thread in the style of Yu-Gi-Oh https://questden.org/kusaba/quest/res/1034777.html and we were wondering if you wanted to have Aldequest represented in some way as a character/trap/spell card? Thanks!

PS, been enjoying the quest so far!

>>142132
That sounds fun, sure! Do you need anything from me? I can pop into the Discord if needed.

Thanks! And your permission is all that was needed. We'll design a fun little fanart card based on something or someone from Aldequest ourselves that the duelist characters can use in quest at a future update, so jumping into discord isnt necessary (unless you want to design a card for us)

Hope you look forward to what we make! Ill let you know when an Aldequest card shows up!

Took a little longer than I would've liked lol, one of the images was a bit higher effort than normal, but I figured color would be important there.

Had a really good time making this update though, hope you all enjoy!

Do you want some help with that? I could do something like coloring.

>>142200
Ah thanks for the offer, maybe after chapter 1, but I started this to challenge myself. Wanted to learn how to draw. I can't accept help for the moment.

>>142205
Ok. When you think my help is welcome just let me know. And if you want some kind of contact information for this.

>>142207
Yeah for sure, if anyone wants to really, I'm capitulize on discord. Don't mind talking.

>>142213
I've sent a request. ...I think. When it's about Discord I'm a luddite.

Next update's got a lot to it, the wait might be slightly longer.

>>142369
Eagerly but patiently waiting.
Bake it as long as you need.

The dancing tanna gif was adorable

>>142523
I love drawing this weasel doing silly things.

Hey! Sorry for the wait, had a lot going on, but I'm almost done with the next update! I wanted to get it done this weekend, but I'm not sure if I'm gonna get that goal done. Here's a little sneak peek though!

So does the song response thing work as intended or is writing more lyrics necessary?

I can write in more of the lyrics if that would help!

>>143018
Whatever you wish to do! General intent is enough though, writing more lyrics isn't necessary.

Nice animation this update.
Also, that image was adorable.
You know the one.

>>143042
Lol thanks, I figured some cuteness was needed after all the recent series of dark vibes.

Christmas tanna over in the secret santa is gonna fill that requirement too.

>>143137
She's even wearing pants this time!

Nice crowd scene in the secret santa, such a fun image

>>143140
Thanks!

I'll post the sprites tomorrow in the fanart thread if people would like them, they were a lot of fun to make.

I also commend you for the dedication. It is a lovelingly detailed scene and the Tanna's inner monologue is pretty funny as well!

>>143156
Thank you! It always means a lot to hear something like that.

Also, sorry for the wait on the next update everyone. Had a little writer's block and got sucked into some other projects (including Christmas lol). I do have the next bit written though, all that's left is to just draw the images. Hopefully I can crank those out soon.

>>143198
Happy to wait.

Hope you had a happy christmas.

Will we be seeing Tanna's gift she got from the secret Santa event in quest?

>>143273
That same idea had crossed my mind actually. I've been thinking of ways to potentially introduce it, I think I have a good one. Will prolly show up in chapter 2.

>>143275
I am glad she liked the gift.

>>143278
Yeah it was super cool and thematic, and seeing someone else draw Tanna was also super fun. Thanks for going back and forth with me!

Well if seeing someone else draw Tanna is fun to you, let me do it one more time. I dawn her being a one-man band.

>>143294
Good gravy! Someone give this mustelidae a record deal!

>>143294
This is amazingly cute, thank you so much! I'll have to get you back with a drawing of my own.

I have to ask do you use the Offical QuestDen Discord?

>>143312
Not yet, I want to complete chapter 1 of Aldequest before I go and join.

>>143315
glad to hear it, also thank you the art it is fantastic.

Tanna

>>143418
A heroic Tanna, hair fluttering the wind! Thank you for the art!

No problem I was just doing a lot of drawing with water paints so I wanted to make something for you.

Heroic or post mischief afterglow.
Either way , its good.

I was wondering if you have a character art reference sheet of Tanna in case we want to make fanart

>>143435
I actually don't, I really should make one. Maybe for the 1 year anniversary, sounds like a good idea for a project.

I got the quest author Tippler to draw you something, enjoy!

>>143449
Managed to look cute while giving of crazy homeless lady vibe. Very appropriate.

>>143449
I don't even know what to say, thanks so much you two! It really does mean a lot to see fanart like this. Never though I'd have a character that could be considered worthy of it, lol. Damn nice shanking stance too, going for the ankles.

Well it's about a week and a half overdue, but Aldequest had it's 1 year anniversary on the 18th! Enjoy this weasel in various poses!

Some notes that I should've spaced into the image but I'll post them here instead.

1. Full rendition Tanna uses gradients. I usually pick the same color as the color I want to gradient and use an overlay layer on top of that, then play around with the colors. That's why her main fur color is so different in the top left pose than everywhere else.
2. Her arms are slightly longer than a normal weasels, but slightly smaller than a humans. When she is walking, she walks on all fours, and usually stands tall when sitting still.
3. She does have breasts, they're just very flat! Hidden under her fur and all that.
4. Tanna is actually a mix of Tachidoki and Otakawa, another type of beastfolk in the world of Aldebaran that are otter-like. While she's mostly Tachidoki, this is where she gets her little white tipped tail. This is also why she has a few different features of various mustelidae such as the least weasel and black footed ferret.

Excellent guide.
On one level its lost on me as i cant draw in the slightest, but on the other level of "enjoy cute weasel bard art" im loving it.

Again, congrats on the anniversary.

>>143524

That is an adorable (and functional!) outfit!

>>143534
>>143599
Hey, thanks! I really like how the outfit came out as well, looking forward to dressing this weasel more in the future.

Just want to provide a quick update as well, working on the next set of images still. I'm kind of a dumbass that waited to long to start writing again, but that portions done! Somehow have even more images lined up than the last update, but I'm a little under halfway done with them. Estimating someday next week is when it'll come out.
